This is the first movie for Maya Forbes as director... She wrote so many funny movies but this is her first one as a director and Mark Ruffalo was nominated for Golden Globes for his role in this movie too. - @Friday, January 27, 2017 12:25 AM

I love this movie! My husband is bipolar and I can relate to a lot of scenes! Like talking to strangers, not finishing things you start, keeping and collecting things.....so much other stuff! - @Tuesday, January 10, 2017 12:32 AM

Mental illness withstanding, I think there is something to be said for wanting to see men in capable, confident roles that don't castrate or emasculate them. A man who, as your partner and equal, can take the reigns when you aren't able, is a wonderful feeling that we need to be careful not to diminish. Yes, we want to see tenderness, love, care, understanding and devotion to their wives and families but not for the sake of taking away their essence as men. We, as women don't want our power taken away as women so why would we do that to men? How do you see your husband? How do you view gender roles as a woman? How do your children view their father? How do they view power dynamics in your home? How do you think that power dynamic will ultimately influence their relationship choices? What aspects of childhood experiences and/or trauma contributed to your approaches to relationships? How did you both contribute to that/those decisions? What kind of conversations do you need to have regarding power dynamics? - @Monday, October 10, 2016 9:26 AM

OMG..OMG...BEST MOVIE EVER! I had to come post a good review on YouTube. IDK why this didn't receive award nominations. It's so funny, so heartfelt, so surreal. This is definitely one for my collection. It's in my top 5 for family movies. - @Monday, December 14, 2015 5:38 PM

I think this is going to be a great family movie especially for kids. You don't see movies like this nowadays. it has that certain type of feel to it that were last in movies that came in the 2000s. - @Saturday, June 20, 2015 11:19 AM
